487:'and that he had not used the word "coward" but that, in the words of historian Helen Trimpi, "would be responsible for any inference that might be drawn on his remarks".' As written there's no subject for "would be responsible"; I'd either delete the second "that", or make it '" would be" in the quote from Trimpi. 148:
Further to my source review at ACR, the sources used all appear to me to be reliable. I am unable to find any other sources which would materially add to the content of the article. The sources referred to seem to support the text cited, insofar as I have checked them. I found no unattributed close
100:
Two Confederate generals begin to dislike each other after the botched attacks at Helena, Arkansas. Things boil over during the Union advance on Little Rock, and the two eventually decide to hold an illegal duel. Both show up despite being ordered to stay in camp, and Walker is mortally wounded.

At first glance, I have a hard time figuring out what the map and its caption conveys. Perhaps clarify that it shows multiple locations related to the incident, if that's the case? Because by just looking at the caption, I'd think it was supposed to show the location of the duel, but it has three
436:
Unfortunately, a "pace" doesn't have a formal definition, so not really. I turned up a source that suggests it was unusually close, so I've added that (possibly b/c Marmaduke had bad eyesight
364:
useable. I'm also finding several publishments of one of him without a beard, but as wartime images of Marmaduke generally show him with a beard, I'd rather not use the beardless one.
191:"for seniority purposes". I suspect that many readers are not going to know what that means without assistance. I realise that there is a footnote later in the article. 425:"The communication had occurred through a series of notes" Do these notes still exist? Maybe there are some public domain pictures of them that could be used? 40: 583: 537: 513: 461: 401: 375: 325: 305: 282: 256: 177: 158: 137: 112: 93: 546: 30: 17: 222:: "the reported statements had not been said". I am probably being picky, but this seems a bit clumsy. Feel free to ignore if you disagree. 557: 509: 505: 101:
Marmaduke is briefly arrested, but is released and suffers no long-term consequences, becoming Governor of Missouri after the war.
203: 206:, but the source (Warner) just refers to it as the Battle of Farmington here, so I've piped the link to remove the Mississippi 341: 572: 428:
I haven't seen anything that states they still exist, and the lack of any images I can turn up supports that indirectly.
149:
paraphrasing. I consider the sources to be current, as these things go. Everything that I would expect to be cited, is.
126: 361: 356:- I'm not finding publishment of that one from before 1927 to prove PD status, although I did find an engraving in 183:"until he resigned to join the Confederate States Army after the Battle of Boonville". Is it known when this was? 72: 501: 417:
Linked in the spot of "during the fighting at Helena". Probably best to link it, especially since it's not
252: 173: 154: 475:. Well-written and concise. I only have a couple of quibbles, below, that don't affect my support. 346:
If I can find verification that it was indeed published before 1927, then I will swap out the image
233:
Some stuff got out of order when I worked in the material from Trimpi, this should be resolved now.
532: 521: 497: 457: 397: 370: 320: 301: 277: 107: 88: 230:"In the notes, Marmaduke stated". What notes? This is the first time they have been mentioned. 186:
Not finding a good resignation date for Marmaduke, so I've specified when the battle was fought
343:
of Marmaduke, as the crop and pose is a bit more similar to that of Walker (and less yellow)?
266: 248: 169: 150: 194:
I've moved the footnote up to here. Does that help? I'm not really sure how to explain this
568: 550: 168:
Recusing to review. I looked at this at ACR, but let's see what else I can find to pick at.
122: 61: 199:
Is the Battle of Farmington really referred to as "the Battle of Farmington, Mississippi"?
418: 549:
has been promoted, but there may be a delay in bot processing of the close. Please see
527: 453: 433:"It would be fought at a distance of 15 paces" Could we get some sort of conversion? 393: 365: 351: 315: 297: 272: 102: 83: 271:- I've made an attempt at addressing all of these. Are the changes satisfactory? 577: 564: 131: 57: 53: 479:"The communication had occurred through a series of notes": why "had"? 39:
Subsequent comments should be made on the article's talk page or in
414:
Should Helena link to a place when not part of the battle's name?
526:- Thanks for the review! I've addressed both of these quibbles. 296:
Looks interesting, haven't reviewed an article like this before.
340:
I wonder if it would look more harmonious with this picture
65: 211:"During the attacks". Whose? Union or Confederate. 238:"Model 1861 Colt's Navy Revolvers". Why the "'s"? 591:The above discussion is preserved as an archive. 419:what's probably the better known Helena in the US 43:.
